I installed Linux Mint 17. I was unable to install it in EFI mode, classic mode but works fine.
In use, one small problem: no sound hdmi out. A 'sudo alsa force-reload has given all square.
I use it in a multimedia player with 128GB SSD and 4GB of memory; it seems to me enough.
I take off a star for the doc, which is fairly light, and the EFI I did not manage to make it work (I said that I have already succeeded on other machines!).
